2. PRIZE

2.1 Prizes: All prizes will be awarded by a random computer generated draw. Each prize must be accepted as awarded. No cash alternatives, substitutions or transfers of the Prize will be allowed. Each prize winner shall not be entitled to convert the Prize for cash. Only one (1) Prize per person can be won during the Contest.

Each Prize will be awarded within four (4) to six (6) weeks of the Prize Draw.

Once a Prize has been awarded, the winner will have no further recourse against the Contest Sponsor.

There will be ten (10) Prizes awarded for Free Groceries for 1 Year (Prize), and each Prize will be a one-time credit of $6,400 in the form of Save-On-Food Gift Cards, or another payment vehicle as determined by Suncor. The value of each Prize was determined by averaging the annual grocery expenditures from stores per household for the provinces of British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba (such provinces being the locations of the Save-On-Foods grocery stores), as described in StatsCan "Food purchased from stores" statistics for 2016. 2016 was the latest StatsCan data available at the time of the Contest. There are locations of Save-On-Food grocery stores in Yukon, however, StatsCan does not have any data on food purchased from grocery stores statistics for Yukon). As a result, the same calculation for the value of the prize will be used for Yukon as was used for the other provinces where Save-On-Foods grocery stores are located).

2.2 Contest Draw: All Prizes will be awarded by a random computer generated draw (See Rules 2.3 through 2.6).

2.3 Odds: The odds of being randomly selected for a Prize depend on the actual number of eligible entries received during the Contest Period.
